Sažetak
This paper attempts to interpret physical education in Western Universities, by drawing attention to the increasing importance of the phenomenon and discourse of science. Driven by economic rationality rather than an educational need university administrators continue to organize and force conformity on to the regimented and didactic forms of knowledge commonly found in the militaristic and authoritarian teaching methods of the past. Surprisingly, those engaged in organizational and behavioral sciences were remarkably ineffective in applying their trade and have come to the bitter realization that resources and knowledge status were closely linked. The authors show how the discourse of human movement studies determined by economic rationality can be reshaped through the integration of all the sciences to fulfil the mandate of higher education and the needs which influence and are influenced by society.
